When a motion picture play makes as sensational a run as did *‘The Honor System*"‘ at the Lyric Theatre in New York, it may be correctly classed as a show worth seeing. One hundred and fif‘ty thousand people in all saw **The Honor System‘‘â€"at the Lyric and its popularity at other city heatres has been equally marked. There are several reasons for the sueâ€" cess of this Fox production,â€"includâ€" ing the staging, the allâ€"star cast which includes Miriam Coopér, Geo. Walsh and Gladys Brockwell, and particujlarâ€" ly the fact that it is one of the most human stories yet screcned. It gives a story, interesting, gripping and true to life and deals with incidents and events of special heart interest to those who have pioneered in new lands ‘‘The Honor System" will be at the Now Empire Theatre on Friday and Saturdav of this week. ns, Supply s ; Mrs. Lawlor. ,llp 12 towels; ir~ socks; Mrs.j 5; Mrs. E.

Also Some Theft Charges and Other Matters of Interest. ift LQUOR CASES cEFORE FOuCE Thursday‘s court was a vyaried one, theft edging booze and disorderly conâ€" duet being crowded along hy one thing or another. â€" Moses Toatey, on a charâ€" ge of selling liquor and another charge of keeping it for sale, was fined $250 on each count,â€"a total of $500 and Magcistrate Athinson for being drunk and disorderly on mine property. The charge of theft preferred against Duff Laroeque was dismissed, as the eviâ€" denee, while showing that che was in pussesqmn of the watch owned by a young lady at ithe Frontenac Hotel. did not show that he had anything to do with the stealing of it. Victoria Lapointe, the young lady brought back from Sudbur\ at the same time as Laroeque, was remanded until this week, bail being renowed. l.lm' ex planation of finding the watch in her suitease, being allowed to wear the ring, intending to return them, cte., did not much nnpwn the Magistrate. Solicitor Cook made a strong appeal for the young lady as the couple inâ€" tended to get married and live happily ever after. As the young ladies losing the® watch and ring concerned have received their. jewelry back and as provision will likely be made for payâ€" in# the costs entarled in the recovery of the goods, it is likely that the Solicitor‘s plea will not ‘be strongly countered when the case comes up aâ€" eain ithis woek. of keeping it for sale, was fined $250 on each count,â€"a total of $500 and costs paid. The charges were laid by Chief Clark and Constable Greer. Constable Meinnis had Joseph Mark ovitch on a chatge of selling. The fine was $200 and costs. â€" Whirle court wa: an, Inspsctor Rowell and Constabhle Greer slipped out and after : time with Jos. Blouin, whom they charged with selling liquor. He was casgs.
